The Princess And The Lord

In another place, Tao Bing Wen has been listening to Yang Xi Ying's story with his mouth opened and closed like fish out of the water he actually didn't want to believe Yang Xi Ying's story but unfortunately, after what he had seen these past few days he had no choice but to believe Yang Xi Ying and what the first thing crossed his mind is his father fine and if they didn't succeed in killing Lao Min Na and her demon, furthermore what would happen to his family? to his mother and grandfather, would they be able to survive, maybe for his grandfather but unlikely for his mother even now his mother has trouble to maintain her health.

Tao Bing wen could hear his slow heartbeat and drag suddenly the urge to become stronger surged within him it felt almost overwhelming, but then he suddenly notice a parchment slip behind one of the cabinets, Tao Bing Wen then crouch while carefully pulling the parchment behind the old cabinet in fear he will tear the old parchment.

He signs in relief after he is able to take the parchment out in one piece, he then blows the dust that covers the parchment then try to read what wrote in it but most of the character was unable to read due to the faint ink and it seems it was written in a different language.

"Hey, look what I got!" he ran to Yang Xi Ying's side while waving his hand.

"What did you find?" Yang Xi Ying's attention was drawn by Tao Bing Wen's enthusiastic voice.

Tao Bing Wen showed the parchment in his hand excitedly "I found something but I can't read because it uses a strange language" he handed the old parchment to Yang Xi Ying like a good student to his teacher.

Yang Xi Ying took the parchment and carefully inspected it, unfortunately, most of the ink became illegible but some were still able to recognize the bales, then he muttered, "This is not a strange language, it is old but you should be able to read it have you never learned anything about it?" he looked at Tao Bing Wen curiously.

Because as the successor of a big sect like the Sword Saint Taoist sect, Bing Wen should be taught to read the old language because many precious martial arts books are written in old languages ​​because the books were written from ancient times and passed down from generation to generation so it is natural for Cultivators especially those with strong bloodlines of powerful cultivators obligated to learn this language so Yang Xi Ying was surprised that Tao Bing Wen didn't know this language at all.

Yang Xi Ying's surprised looks made Tao Bing Wen feel embarrassed while scratching his head awkwardly he finally confess: "All the books at my place have been translated so I don't need to study"

Yang Xi Ying raised her brows  then her expression got stern "When this is over, you really have a lot of things to learn"

Tao Bing Wen's mouth twitched, he had no way to refute that.

Meanwhile, Yang Xi Ying was trying to understand the writing on the parchment, the first words she could read were 'Today His Majesty the emperor introduced his chosen consort candidate….but faced rejection from some of the highest authorities, especially Sanguan…Mu Xi. ..'

Yang Xi Ying stared wide-eyed as she read Sanguan's name written on the old parchment.

"Sanguan? is it the same as the Sanguan clan that Long Ming destroyed?" news of the destruction of the Sanguan clan had spread throughout the world how not, the great clan that had ruled the Gui Hong continent for decades was destroyed overnight at Zhao Li Xin's hands even though the reason for its destruction was never clearly known.

"I'm not sure after all the name Sanguan isn't the only one in this world..." even so Yang Xi Ying's face stiffened she couldn't believe such a coincidence she was almost certain it had something to do with the Zhao Li Xin family's biological and if it was true then everything is connected like a jigsaw puzzle each piece fits into the other and when everything is put together everything becomes clearer.

Tao Bing wen didn't notice Yang Xi Ying's complicated looks because she was too excited to know the contents of the parchment.

"hey what else is in that parchment?" asked Tao Bing Wen impatiently.

Yang Xi Ying was startled she awoke from her daze and continued to read but the next writing could not be read she had skipped and looked for clearer writing, and near the end of the parchment she found clear writing,

"A...riot?" Yang Xi Ying's eyebrows gradually furrow.

"What riot?" Tao Bing Wen asked again.

"Shut up, I'm trying to read this!" Yang Xi Ying hushed the noisy Tao Bing Wen and the boy immediately shut his mouth and thus Yang Xi Ying continues.

"The palace is surrounded by thousands of soldiers led by Sanguan Mu Xi...His Majesty the Emperor was poisoned...they demanded that the empress be removed and the emperor forced to abdicated..." her voice become tight.

"So there was a coup against the emperor?" Tao Bing Wen hold his breath as he got a little bit excited when he dig a piece of information that nobody in the world could know.

Tao Bing Wen treated this as a simple story that had nothing to do with him because it happened a very long time ago but Yang Xi Ying beg to differ, thought she didn't know whether this information was important or not but she was assured Lory needed to know about this then suddenly Ming Yue Yin saw another word at the end of the parchment.

The words were written in smudged but still able to read and it said 'Massacre'

Yang Xi Ying subconsciously holds the parchment tightly untill the edges of the parchment wrinkle.

"What's wrong?" Tao Bing Wen was confused by the obvious change in Yang Xi Ying's expression.

"I have to find Lory!" after he said that Ming Yue Yin turned around and left with long strides while ignoring Tao Bing Wen's holler.

Meanwhile, Lory and Ming Yue Yin were observing Emperor Lei Yu's golden throne, and Ming Yue Yin looked around them to find any clues but there wasn't much she could see except a huge pillar with carvings of snakes on one side and dragons on the other as if the two legendary beasts walking hand in hand as a respected symbol even though she understood why Emperor Lei Yu chose the dragon crest because dragons always represented the Emperor but she didn't understand why snakes?

"It's a red dragon..." Lory muttered in an indistinct voice.

"Yes?" Ming Yue Yin looked at him in confusion.

Lory lowered her gaze then she calmly descend the stairs while replying in a nonchalant tone "Nothing!"

<strong>"LORY!"</strong> Yang Xi Ying's voice comes from far away.

"Over here!" Lory answered loudly.

Not long after Yang Xi Ying came running towards Lory in a hurry, "I found something... oh my, is this the Emperor's throne? it was so magnificent!" she was stunned in awe.

Lory and Ming Yue Yin walked down the steps of the throne leisurely later Yang Xi Ying snapped back from  her daze she immediately showed Lory a piece of parchment "Tao Bing wen found this and I think you need to know this"

Lory accepted the parchment then she squinted his eyes "I can't read it"

"Oh yes, I forgot!" Yang Xi Ying smack her forehead she forgot Lory was not a cultivator.

"Let me see!" Ming Yue Yin snaps the parchment from Lory's hand.

Yang Xi Ying then explained, "In that parchment, I read something about the coup against Emperor Lei Yu led by Sanguan Mu Xi..."

"Sanguan?" Lory was paused for a second when Sanguan's name was mentioned.

Yang Xi Ying nodded firmly "Yes, that's what I thought too"

Lory was silent as Yang Xi Ying continued, "There is also a mention of 'massacre' but I don't know what kind of massacre, perhaps is about Emperor Lei Yu killing all the traitors who betrayed him but why is it called a massacre? it sounds very negative don't you think?" Yang Xi Ying expressed her bewilderment.

Lory was immersed in her thought when Girsha's voice suddenly rang in her head, [All these questions might be able to answer by that old Lizard]

[But we don't know if he will answer there must be a reason why he is silent about this, maybe he wants us to know for ourselves] Lory sighed heavily.

[Tsk, Why is it so troublesome] Girsha snorted in annoyance.

[cab't blame him,  If Huo Long accepted Arthea's guidance, I guess he was just following Arthea's orders...]

[What are the needs of all these riddles?!] Girsha grumbled.

[Mother said, the secret of the future cannot be conveyed easily cause it brings more harm than benefit] Lory said.

[I don't like it!] Girsha huffed defiantly.

[Me too, but that's how it is] Lory turned her gaze to the dragon carvings on the pillars wondering if Huo Long, Lazarus, and emperor Lei Yu knew each other directly, and what was their connection to Arthea or her other than through Zhao Li Xin...is that all about? or there's something more?
